Seems like a perfectly realistic and acceptable solution to me!\nMy only real complaint, when it comes to thunderstorms, is that lightning seems to be strangely attracted to beach towels. The pair of buddies I have living in the Admiral's Wreckage in Sulani go through at least a few every monsoon season, as they're frequently reduced to piles of ash by lightning strikes. One would think they'd just be blown away when left out during high winds, but the lightning always gets to them first. It's so reliable that I've used towels to attract lightning for purposes of getting lightning strike photos.\n"}]

As for the weather, I think it goes through patterns. At one time with one particular sim, all outdoor furniture was struck by lightning so many times that I eventually gave up replacing it. On another occasion, I was so tired of constant rain that I took my sim to other neighbourhoods in search of sunshine and clear skies, only for the rain to just follow along. Also, not really possible to escape the cold, because it's winter season in all neighbourhoods at the same time, I had snow fall in Oasis Springs and Stangerville and there's monsoon season in Sulani. \n\n"}]
